On Thursday, October 21st at 7 pm at University of Massachusetts Dartmouth's Main Auditorium, Marcus Engel will present, In the Blink of an Eye, based on his own journey of recovery after being blinded and severely injured by a drunk driver.
In the Blink of an Eye is Mr. Engel's stunning and honest account of the fight of his life. From average college student one minute, to clinging to life in a hospital bed the next, Mr. Engel takes audiences deep inside his recovery after being blinded by a drunk driver. Audiences will experience the pain, frustration and loss that can happen in an instant, all due to one preventable mistake. Beyond your typical alcohol awareness presentation, Mr. Engel blends an unforgettable prevention message with significant amounts of humor, tips and insights for audiences to use to overcome adversity in their own lives
Mr. Engel is the author of three books, including his autobiography, After This...An Inspirational Journey for All the Wrong Reasons, I'm Here: Compassionate Communication in Patient Care, and The Other End of the Stethoscope: 33 Insights into Excellent Patient Care.
This free event is open to the public. Mr. Engel's appearance is sponsored by the following organizations: UMADD, Peer Health Educators, and Phi Sigma Sigma.
